birds and butterflies...

Thanks to everyone for the comments about the birds...from yesterday's post.Before the "build a better bird" workshop started, I showed the gals these BIRDS... from Anthropology...This guy is cool...but the price tag is $648.00!Yes...you read it right...$648!!!!!!!!!!!This guy is cute too...and his price is $248.00...

In my opinion...the birds from the workshop are worth much more!Once again...GREAT JOB GALS!!!

I'm doing this workshop two more times...First @ The Stamping Place in Columbia SC...and next @ Scrapbook Friend'z in Bloomington, Illinois...the dates are on the right sidebar...

Now on to the butterflies...It must be spring fever...I've had 3 requests in the last few days to design a butterfly stamp...GOOD IDEA!!OH wait...!

I already did...Here's several samples...done by me...

This is a 100% grunge book...NO paper was used...just distress inks & grunge...

Lovely work Wendy ... and Samantha! ... please come to the UK :0)) I want to make an ickle birdie :0))

Please can you tell me if you just colour the grungeboard directly with the ink pads ... or do you coat is first ... It is just that your colours are so vibrant ... I reckon I may be doing something wrong!

Hi Wendy,I wanted to thank you for the awesome class last Friday, with the Distressed Inks and grundge paper. I wondered how they were done, and admired the work before taking the class.I hope everyone got as much out of it as I did. I haven't yet had time to put my own together, need a few more colors of ink.I wish everyone could learn the technique.thanks againpatriciaBuffalo, New York
